He showed a little bit of old Romo, dodging negative plays and making big positive plays. Wasn't the best at times, but wasn't bad overall, and didn't cost us the game either.

He gets a C! It was great to see him limited to 30 passes but that had more to do with ST and the defense saving the inconsistent passing gameplan! On the low he was only responsible for 10 points.

No grade here, but several of those passes that looked bad I believe were thrown that way on purpose. If you play them back, you'll see if he had put the ball up where it could be easily caught, there was a Commander there ready to intercept it.

B. I agree game manager tonight, all qb s get these kind of nights where they can do just enough and it's all good. This isn't normal for Romo, typically he have to be making a 4th quarter comeback.

Tells us that Special Teams and defense carried their share.
Welcome to world that Joe Flacco has lived in his whole career.
Take the W!

Don't forget eli too, now the guy can barely tie his shoes. Maybe he can carry Romo's shoes after practice.

He did what he needed to do for a win. No more, no less. Some of the "bad" low throws I thought were intentional. He was being careful not to get intercepted. Throwing the ball low and away where only his guy can make a play.

B-

You kinda knew the Commanders would come into this game and muck it up a little bit. They always play us tough.

C+, the throw to T-Will on the TD was the best throw I've ever seen him make but he was off for most of the game. A lot of balls were thrown at the feet of the receivers. D-Hall....give him hell, knows how to cover Dez and the blitz overall made him Romo uncomfortable which hurt his accuracy.

He was doing a lot more than playing "game manager". Not one of his best games, but he wasn't just "driving the bus" as people like to say.

Yeah he was a bus driver last night. And that's perfectly fine. I don't understand why people think of a "Bus driver" as a bad thing.

I agree with B
he made a couple of great plays that only a few QB s can make
My concern was that I got the feeling he was playing jittery and tense/uncomfortable all night
Maybe it was his concern that the skins would bring pressure and our OL would not pick it up?

This is an accurate grade and reason why he got that grade.^ This game was won by the defense/special teams and a very small part by Romo. Luckily we were playing a team that has very little offense... otherwise we would have gotten killed. If Romo plays like this against the Eagles, they are going to murder us.

He was off. Caught him looking at the rush a few times rather than focusing down field. C but when they needed him to step up (after 2 straight 3 N outs, with rush in his face to Williams), he came through.

Hopefully, the D will keep getting better. We had some rush but RGIII was off all night. Some Progress but I worry about the Eagles.
